Survival Skills

Learning and practicing your survival
skills is not mandatory, but neither is your living.

Prepping for the end of the world as we know it
involves more that just stockpiling food and ammo. You
should learn basic survival skills because that
knowledge may mean the difference between life and
death.

Prepping
picks up where homesteading
and bushcraft skills leave
off. In fact, I believe that
bush-crafting skills are the
ground-level prerequisites
for Prepping.

Preppers
need to first master their
bushcraft skills before they move
on to more complex
technological skills!
Preppers should first master
being a ‘minimalist’
(survivalist) and be able to
live off the grid with
almost nothing. I am talking
about all the key bushcraft
skills that are taught at
survival schools. You have
to be able to make fire
without a lighter, matches
or a fire-steel. You have to
be able to make tools from
nature, find water, maker a
shelter, hunt, fish, trap
and forage among other
bushcraft skills.

Homesteading is a carryover
from our pioneer days. A
good homesteader excels at
gardening, livestock care
and the basics of farm life.
All of these skills are an
integral of a Preppers
survival skills.
